The aircraft was scheduled to take off for its first sortie of the day, to spray a grass plantation.
During the takeoff run, the pilot realized he would not have enough speed to turn the aircraft.
At this point, the pilot decided to abort the takeoff. The aircraft veered sideways to the left, skidding and dragging for approximately 15 meters, spilling all the insecticide on the pilot. The aircraft suffered severe damage, and the pilot suffered serious injuries.
